I would make Comp eat that. And if going with the same lifter make sure to now overdo the preload. That really seems to mess them up.

I think he may be hinting to not get any more Comp lifters.

Dan, I understood you perfectly the first time. Does anybody know how many lifters comp actually produces each year? And out of that number does anybody know what the failure rate is? You guys that had failures what were the specs of your cam, which heads, valve springs etc? What RPM were you running when it actually failed? It could be that those were the incorrect lifters for your builds. My builds are pretty mild compared to many of you on this forum and every manufacturer all across the world has the occasional product failure. I do consider all comments in my decision making process. Thanks again for your comments and input.
